The hotel was in a great location opening on to the sea front, but at the quieter end of the town. We had an excellent dinner- grilled fish with the house white which was first rate (we appreciated being able to taste it first). Breakfast was a lovely buffet which had something for every taste. We had a very spacious junior suite with a balcony which was very comfortable.

Nice room, a little small, but comfortable. Breakfast was very continental but then the guests seem to be mainly from Germany so I can't complain. The food was OK, but then there are so many nice restaurants around it is hard to complete. The staff were all very friendly and the bar on the hotel beach was excellent.
Facing the beachfront, Enorme Santanna Beach offers 4-star accommodation in Ierápetra and has a seasonal outdoor swimming pool, fitness centre and garden.

Where do I start - we truly enjoyed our holidays at Enorme Santanna Beach Hotel. The facilities and rooms have very nice, clean design. From the hotel there is a nice view to the city and mountains. Hotel is located next to the beach which is fully equipped beach with comfortable sunbeds and beach bar. The beach is rocky - black rock and sand beach, but I really liked the character of the beach. Although the sea bottom itself is rocky, still it is possible to comfortably enter it and swim. Food was excellent - fresh and delicious, I especially enjoyed breakfast and dinner, it’s wide variety of different cusines and desserts were outstanding. The staff is friendly, kind and always ready to help you, so for the hotel staff itself I give 10/10. You are great and doing a great job there! As this was the first part of our trip and we did not want to do anything much just sunbathe on the beach and relax, we found this a perfect choice.

The villa is chic and feels secluded although centrally located, like an oasis in the desert. Just a short walk to the port. The best was the host and his suggestions and tips. It helped us greatly to replan our 2 days stay and discover places to visit and to eat at that one wouldn’t easily find in blogs or social media, so take your time to talk to him. Would love to come and stay there again.

It’s a small town that has the most amazing beaches. Has loads of tavernas to try different food every night. I love the fact it’s full of Greeks and not too many tourists for a more genuine experience

Lerapetra is not one of the main tourist destinations on Crete but well worth a visit.
There are more than enough restaurants and bars along the seafront, with a nice compact centre of town.
Only thing to note is that with the closure of Chrissi Island, there are effectively no tourist trips from Lerapetra. For this you would need to travel to the north side of the island.

The town is awful!
The town is awful!
Almost all the restaurants and cafeterias were closed.
We were looking for a park for our son to play and we only found one in the whole town. It was dirty, smelly and full of kids so my child could not play there.
Never coming back again!

Ierapetra -as a city- is not very beatiful, although the beach/port route is quite good.
However, it is the perfect place for visiting some of the most beautiful beaches in the world, including "Kakkos", "Psaropoula", "Agia Fotia", "Achlia", "Psari Forada" and others - since it is located in front of the Libyan Sea. You can also visit "Chryssi" - an worldwide known exotic island just near by, and at the same time you have access to extremely high quality (and low cost) food.

We stayed in Ierapetra for just 24 hours. We found that city was much developed, in a good meaning. Dedicated streets for pedestrians and bikes, updated sea walk area. Please visit "Casablanca" all day cafe-restaurant, with very good coffee (Fredo) and very tasty international and local dishes.

Authentic Greek town with really nice, friendly atmosphere where you can live and feel yourself a part of it.
Great eating out options, pastries, amazing shopping and welcoming, pleasant Greek people!
We had one of the best stays ever out of any trip here in Crete. The room was exceptionally clean and well designed, with high-end furnishings and fixtures. It looks so great! We took pictures to get some ideas for our own house. Everything was so clean and well-maintained. We just had to stay another day.
The whole property was exceptional. Great parking lot, the pool was very clean and the water was great. I had a chance to meet the owners and I would highly recommend this hotel or anyone looking for a nice relaxing stay in Crete.
Everything. It’s beautiful. Such a relaxing stay. The staff were amazing, friendly and helpful. They go above and beyond. The location right on the beach is so nice. The main swimming pool was ice cold but so nice once in then you come out and walk to the beach and into the sea which then felt like a bath. Highly recommend this hotel for a lovely relaxing stay. Everything about it is amazing. There is not much around outside of the hotel, we had a car for the week which you would need if wanting to mix it up and go out.
the room was not what we expected. All the photos show a sea view. this was not the case for our room. It was listed as self catering studio flat. It would have been fine if it said hotel room with balcony. there was no sink (only in bathroom) no table to sit at.(only tiny one on balcony). no place to cook or prepare anything. No place to dry clothes. (no clothes rack).
The host was very friendly. It was very close to excellent beach, The chairs were comfortable.
This was our second time in the last 4 years staying at Tylissos Beach Hotel. Its hands down one of the best places to stay in Ierapetra. EVERYTHING is just a short walk away. The hotel staff is always amazing. The hotel has been beautifully updated since our last visit. The room is wonderfully comfortable with the most amazing shower. The bar/pool staff are great. Breakfast selection was as good as ever. I can't wait to come back next year!!!
Very nice family owned property, with a beautiful garden. It is a small apartment perfect for 4, with a master bed and 2 beds for kifs, and a fully equipped kitchen. The bathroom was very nice. We also had barbecue one evening with the help of the owner who was very kind and prepared everything for us.
He also gave us fruits and the traditional welcoming raki. Very close to Ierapetra, the location was amazing, definitely worth it.
The common areas of the hotel are great and the staff is extremely welcoming and helpful. Some of the studios and rooms are not yet finished or properlh cleaned after the renovations and it is quite impossible or very expensive to reach from Chania airport and a bit far even from Heraklion airport.
Food quality and variability (especially dinners), freshly squeezed orange juice during breakfast, lots of facilities for children, cleanliness, nice view of see especially from higher floors, close proximity of the see, well equipped gym. Overall Petra Mare is a great hotel worth to stay in.
Breakfast was superb. Location right on the sea is good. The hotel is very comfortable. There is a beach immediately in front of the hotel but we did not use it - there are other beaches nearby which looked fine.
Nice hotel, excellent view, room are very well, modern keyless entrance system(unfortunately doesn't work with present staff), swimming pool in nice location, breakfast and coffee so nice, coffee!!!!!!!!!!
This comfy aparthotel is in the heart of Ierapetra. The waterfront balcony was just perfect. The hosts were friendly and welcoming. A real value for money option for a comfortable stay. Would recommend.
very spacious apartment in the middle of old town. very generous and friendly host. we greatly enjoyed our stay in the apartment and would stay there anytime again when in Ierapetra.
